Services Offered

Foundation Systems of Michigan specializes in protecting and repairing the integrity of your home's structure from the ground up. Their expertise covers a comprehensive range of solutions for both residential and commercial properties, tackling everything from minor cracks to severe structural instability.

• Foundation Repair: This includes comprehensive solutions for common Michigan foundation issues such as bowing walls, wall cracks, and foundation settlement, using advanced techniques like helical piers, push piers, SettleStop Wall Anchors, I-Beams, and Carbon Fiber Reinforcement to stabilize and secure the structure.
• Basement Waterproofing: Essential services to protect finished and unfinished basements from water intrusion, dampness, and flooding. Solutions involve interior drainage systems (like BasementGutter™), AquaStop™ Sump Pumps, dehumidifiers, and wall vapor barriers to ensure a dry, healthy space.
• Crawl Space Repair and Encapsulation: Addressing issues like sagging floors, mold growth, and high humidity in crawl spaces. Services include installing vapor barriers, crawl space structural repair (such as SettleStop IntelliJack™ support posts), encapsulation, and dehumidification to seal the area and prevent moisture damage.
• Concrete Contractor Services: Expertise in concrete lifting and leveling (often called poly-leveling or concrete injection leveling) for sinking patios, driveways, sidewalks, and pool decks. They also handle full concrete repair and replacement as needed for their structural projects.
• Water Damage Restoration (Prevention and Mitigation): While not a full-scope clean-up service, their core offerings—waterproofing and crawl space solutions—are designed to prevent and mitigate structural damage caused by persistent water infiltration, hydrostatic pressure, and moisture problems, which is the first line of defense against severe water damage.
• Generator Installation: Offering reliable whole-house generator installation, specifically Briggs & Stratton and Cummins brands, to ensure homeowners maintain power and functionality, especially for critical systems like sump pumps, during Michigan’s unpredictable weather outages.
• Gutter Repair and Installation: Providing comprehensive gutter services as part of a complete water management system to properly direct water away from the foundation.
• Carpentry and Electrical Work: Performing associated carpentry and electrical work strictly in relation to their core foundation, basement, or crawl space projects, ensuring a seamless and fully functional solution.
